A vehicle includes a frame and a body. The body defines a passenger cabin and has a front bulkhead. The vehicle includes a crossmember supported by the frame and elongated along a vehicle-lateral axis. The crossmember is movable forward from a stowed position at the bulkhead along a vehicle-longitudinal axis away from the front bulkhead to a deployed position. The vehicle includes a pyrotechnic actuator configured to move the crossmember from the stowed position to the deployed position.
